Question

Eight more than the quotient of a number and 9 is equal to 3.​

Answer 1

Answer:

-45

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be represented by x.

The question can be solved as x/9 + 8 = 3

This is because the quotient of the number and 9 is same as (x/9)

and it is expected to be eight more (+ 8)

Therefore, x/9 = 3 - 8

x/9 = -5

x = -5 x 9

x = -45
